You don’t hear about it much. But just because the chance of a camel attack is low, doesn’t mean that chance is zero.
On Wednesday, the Stearns County Sheriff was called to a zoo in central Minnesota on a report of an animal bite. The victim, Roger Blenker was transporting the animal when the incident occurred.
According to People Magazine:
“…the camel placed Blenker’s head into its mouth, biting down on his head. The camel then dragged Blenker by the head approximately fifteen feet,” the news release stated.”
Then, a second employee got involved and tried to intervene. They worked to free Blenker but soon after, the camel attacked them. The dust soon settled and Blenker was taken to a local hospital and is expected to make a full recovery.
